Chase is one of the largest banks in the country, serving 60 million people with their banking, credit card, and loan needs. The company now has over 4,800 branches across all 48 states, so it is no wonder that so many people are interested in learning more about what to expect as a Chase customer.
The below article provides answers to a wide variety of questions related to Chase deposits.
1. How Long Does Chase Direct Deposit Take
Chase will release your paycheck on your payday. Unlike some non-traditional banks, Chase will not give you early access to the money. Your job’s payroll people will tell Chase when your payday is (a.k.a. the effective date) and that is the day Chase will release your funds.
2. Does Chase do Direct Deposit Early?
No, Chase will only release your paycheck deposit on your payday (the effective date your payroll department says to release it). If you want your paycheck released a day or so before your pay date, you will need to switch to a non-traditional bank like Walmart or Chime.
3. What Time Does Chase Direct Deposit Hit?
Most customers say they receive their direct deposit from Chase around 3 am-5 am EST.

Most customers say they receive their direct deposit from Chase around 12 am-2 am PST.

10. Does Chase Direct Deposit on Saturdays?
No, direct deposits would not be released on a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday.
If your pay date lands on a Saturday, hopefully, your company’s payroll department will give your funds a Friday effective date, allowing you to get paid Friday morning. If your payroll department puts Saturday as the effective date, then you will not get your money until Monday morning.
11. Does Chase Direct Deposit on Sundays?
No, direct deposits would not be released on a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday.
If your pay date lands on a Sunday, hopefully, the payroll department at your company will adjust the effective date to be Friday (basically move your pay date to Friday). However, if your payroll department uses an effective date of a Sunday, then you will not see your money until Monday morning.
12. Does Chase Direct Deposit on Weekends?
No, direct deposits would not be released on a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday.
The payroll department at your company may change your pay effective date so you get paid on Friday. However, if your payroll department keeps the payment effective date as Saturday or Sunday, then you will not receive your money until Monday.
13. Will Chase Direct Deposit Today?
Chase releases direct deposits Monday through Friday, as long as it is not a national bank holiday.
14. How Long Does Chase Mobile Deposit Take?
Chase mobile deposits take one business night to process.
- If you do the mobile deposit before 11 pm EST on a business day Monday-Thursday, then the money will most likely be available in a few hours, by the next morning.
- If you do the mobile deposit before 11 pm EST on a business day Friday, then the money will most likely be available to you on Monday morning.
- If you do the mobile deposit before 11 pm EST on a Saturday or Sunday, then the money will most likely be available to you on Monday morning.
However, Chase reserves the right to delay availability, usually because it is worried there is fraud or that the check won’t clear. Any delays will be communicated to you in the Chase Secure Message Center.

Chase does not mandate all customers have a direct deposit. However, products like Chase Total Checking may charge you a monthly fee of $12 unless you have a direct deposit.
22. Can Someone Deposit Money into my Chase Account?
No, due to money laundering concerns Chase will not allow anyone to deposit cash into an account unless that person is an owner or authorized user on the account. Also, the name on the Direct deposit must match the name on the Chase account or Chase may reject the deposit.
To get around this, use Chase Quickpay or another peer-to-peer money transfer service like Zelle, to send money to the Chase customer, who can then transfer it into his or her own account.
